Big Picture: Pictorial Report Number 10

DVD copied by Master Scanner Thomas Gideon. Department of Defense. Department of the Army. Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations. U.S. Army Audiovisual Center. (ca. 1974 - 05/15/1984). For this pictorial report, three subjects are covered by Signal Corps cameramen in Germany and Korea. The first, "Berlin MP Patrol," takes place one hundred miles deep in the Soviet zone of Germany. Here, every day, one finds a silent but ceaseless struggle for supremacy between our way of life and the slave state way. From free Berlin, the camera moves westward to the next picture story. The locale is the "Rhine Engineer Depot," most modern of its kind in Europe, located on the outskirts of Kaiserslauten, Germany. For the last story, THE BIG PICTURE camera crews film Army light planes in operation in Korea. The scene is the Eighth Army Airstrip. Just as in the Korean War when it performed many key jobs, the light plane still plays an important role today.
